HWH leveling jacks

[Gardner Yeaw]

Ralph,
Thanks for the advise. As soon as it stops raining I will check it
out. Once I put it up for the winter I need to send the valve
assembly to HWH to be rebuilt. One of the jacks doesn't hold, no
leak.
At the rate I am replacing and fixing things up I should start to
call it a 2006 with some 1978 parts!
